So here's what we will do for 25 days starting Dec. 5th. We will post 8 bars a day for you to work on.

Take the 8 bars master them then move on to the next 8 bars. Each 8 bars will have a topic and a point to them. They will not all be related.

So get ready for 8BD

I see Yuhan hanging around on the site. She's a great vibe player from Taiwan.

Here's a cool piece (I think) she wrote.

I found out today that Marimba One now makes a set of vibes that they call One Vibraphone. Has anyone played one of these? How would you rate it on sound quality, portability, quality of construction, etc.

Thanks,
Ted

I've recorded this version of Peace after I've watched Tony's lesson ;-)
and because I was a bit uppset by what is going on in America this time.
good tune to share sadness.
Peace. Illya

My temple students Travis and Salina were given the assignment to video themselves playing through the modes.

I think they did a good job! Give 'em some love!

They improvised through all of the F modes from the major key.

So here's the deal.

I wrote an etude of all eighth notes. It's important for us to be able to weave through the changes, up and down and up and down. It's important for us to move the line in seconds. We do it much more easily with 3rds, but 2nds is where the magic happens.

• If you're going to do this right, write in the changes and study the lines.
• Play the etude down.
• Memorize the etude completely.
• Throw away the music.
• Play the etude in other keys.
• Smile at how much you've learned

working on pedaling. I real like the way this one sounds, I think my time could be better in some spots, but still sound a little expressive

been working on this one! not perfect but worth sharing
